That's what i use, i've found the best results using it. I know some people use really thick stuff like 20/50, but mine was terrible using that. |

Yep i always use 3 in 1 as its alot thinner works a bit better in the dashpot. should run it dry if its mot time though cus it puts up the co level a bit more than it should when i drove a 10" wheeled Mini last it felt insane ! |

2 dashpot springs or a heavy duty one helps stop it rising to quick too

Due to the temp, espeically in summer here everyone uses ATF. But I have found this to be a bit thin, plant yor foot down it hesitates a bit and A/F ratio guage show lean (piston lifting too quick) |

a stronger spring with blocked "part throttle leaning pipe" should correct this lean situation that cannot always be by the oil grade alone. |
